The document mentions that 'Two sites have also been granted permission for exploratory boreholes to be worked to investigate their suitability for hydraulically fractured shale gas extraction' however, the literature review omits any evidence regarding the safety and potential environmental risks of fracking, such as the House of Commons document 'Environmental Risks of Fracking' (HC 856, published 26th January 2015)
